Edema is a nonspecific finding common to a host of diseases. It is defined as a palpable swelling produced by expansion of the interstitial fluid volume. Edema can be a sign of benign or potentially life threatening disease. Systematic approach to the patient with edema allows for prompt diagnosis and treatment. Here, we review the pathophysiology, causes, clinical approach and treatment strategies.

Ödem: Nedenleri, Patofizyolojisi ve Tedavisi

Öz

Ödem klinikte sık olarak karşımıza çıkan ve farklı hastalıklara bağlı olarak gelişen nonspesifik bir bulgudur. İntertisyel sıvı hacminin artışına bağlı olarak gelişen palpe edilebilen şişme olarak tanımlanır. Benign bir sebebe bağlı olabileceği gibi hayatı tehdit eden bir hastalığın bulgusu da olabilir. Sistematik bir yaklaşımla hastalığın teşhisi ve tedavisi sağlanır. Bu derlemede ödemin patofizyolojisini, nedenlerini, klinik yaklaşım ve tedavisini tartıştık.
